Konica ‘Gemba Kantoku’ WB28 Rugged Camera

This is an unusual camera from Konica – built to withstand knocks and wet weather. Originally designed for use on construction sites, it has a body with rubberised coating to survive gentle drops, and a protective glass plate over the lens. 

It has a lovely 28mm lens (wide-angle) and is fully automatic, able to cope with a broad range of lighting situations. It is great for hiking, street photography etc where cameras are expected to take a few knocks. 

See the gallery for some sample shots we took with one of these cameras.

It has an automatic flash, autofocus, automatic film wind / rewind.

In perfect working order. A few scuffs and usage marks, but ready to take a few more knocks with ease !

Takes 2CR5 lithium battery (included), and works with all 35mm film types.
